Welcome to a new decade and exciting new semester!
Happy New Year. I hope you had a joyful and rejuvenating holiday, and are ready for what promises to be a positive and productive 2020 for ¶¡ÏãÔ°AV.
If you are a new student this semester – congratulations! You’ve made a great choice, and we are pleased to have you as part of the university community. I encourage you to take advantage of the many learning opportunities that ¶¡ÏãÔ°AV has to offer – both inside and outside the classroom.
For starters, check out the activities we have planned from January 6 to 10 at all three campuses.
Looking ahead, ¶¡ÏãÔ°AV will welcome more than 2,500 participants and hundreds of exhibitors from across Asia and around the globe to the Asia-Pacific Association for International Education Annual Conference & Exhibition () to be held in Vancouver in late March.
There will be numerous other opportunities for university and community members to engage with ¶¡ÏãÔ°AV throughout the semester. Examples include:
- The President’s Faculty Lecture Series, with lectures by Dr. Deanna Reder on January 15, Dr. Faranak Farzan on February 25 and Dr. Paul Budra on March 10.
- The opening of new space at – ¶¡ÏãÔ°AV’s newest Vancouver campus facility aimed at furthering community-engaged research and programming – on January 30.
- The annual ¶¡ÏãÔ°AV Public Square Community Summit scheduled for early April. (Stay tuned for details on another timely and thought-provoking program.)
These are just a few of the many exciting things that will be happening at ¶¡ÏãÔ°AV this year. I look forward to seeing you on campus and in the community.
